  1. Good to know! Thanks for sharing this.
  2. Finding a doctor who truly understands celiac disease can be challenging—many still rely on outdated info or dismiss lingering symptoms. Here's what's worked for me and others in the celiac community: 1. Start with a Gastroenterologist (GI) Specializing in Celiac Look for GIs affiliated with celiac research centers (e.g., Columbia University, ...
  3. For those of us with celiac disease, fueling workouts safely can be tricky—especially when many sports gels, bars, and supplements are gluten landmines. I’ve been experimenting with gluten-free options that don’t sacrifice performance or digestion. A few favorites: Pre-Workout: Banana with almond butter + a dash of sea salt (electrolytes!) or homem...
  4. Did you get any further tests done? Just curious if you know more now.
  5. Hopefully you're supplementing to treat your osteoporosis. Let us know how you're doing.
  6. By the way, when I did a Google search for "Gluten-free restaurants in Gadsden, AL" I see this, however, this doesn't mean you can't get contamination at these places:

  8. Just a reminder that we've got ~30 years of shared recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ https://www.celiac.com/forums/forum/27-gluten-free-recipes-cooking-tips/
  9. Just be sure that the chocolate milk is gluten-free, as some contain barley malt.
  10. My daughter and I have had them many times without any issues, however, they were indeed labeled "Gluten-Free" on the package, otherwise we would not have tried them. We like them, but they don't have as much breading as the picture on the package shows.
  11. It's worth reading the many studies done on AN-PEP enzymes, which are used in GliadinX, and all are posted on their website. The best policy for celiacs is to avoid eating out, but if you're like me, that is a bridge too far--I enjoy eating out too much, as well as traveling.
  12. There are test kits available (urine test) that can tell you if you consumed gluten in the last ~24 hours, but without that, there is no way to be certain. Eating out in restaurants in the primary source of contamination for most celiacs. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional...
  13. I've not tried them, but making your own anti-inflammatory juice shots at home can be a great way to support gut health while ensuring ingredients are fresh, cost-effective, and tailored to your needs. Many store-bought options (like Thistle’s) are convenient, but DIY versions allow you to control ingredients and avoid additives. Some powerful anti-inflammatory i...
  14. It sounds like an exciting plan, and there is a lot of great naturally gluten-free foods in the Caribbean islands, Mexico, Central America, etc.
  15. If you’ve been strictly gluten-free for several years, your tTG IgA level of 13.6 (within the normal range of <15) is generally a good sign, as it suggests no significant gluten exposure or ongoing immune response. However, some celiac patients on a gluten-free diet may still have low but detectable tTG IgA levels due to minor cross-contamination, slow h...
  16. Research suggests a significant connection between celiac disease and dysautonomia, particularly conditions like POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome). Celiac-related autoimmune inflammation, nutrient deficiencies (e.g., B12, iron), and vagus nerve dysfunction may contribute to autonomic nervous system dysfunction. Some studies report improved...
  17. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
  18. You can see our Terms of Use here: https://www.celiac.com/terms/
  19. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests...
  20. if it is an event, you would need to post that in our calendar.
  21. Is this only for those in the UK, or can anyone diagnosed with celiac disease participate?
  22. Celiac.com 05/17/2025 - Adobo, often called the unofficial national dish of the Philippines, has roots stretching back centuries—long before Spanish colonization. Historians believe early Filipinos used vinegar and salt to preserve meat i...
  23. Celiac.com 05/16/2025 - For people with celiac disease, avoiding gluten is just one piece of the puzzle. Research shows that celiac disease often coexists with other autoimmune disorders, such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, Type 1 diabetes, ...
